RE: AGENDA ITEM REGARDING WAIVING THE PROHIBITION O ,
CONSTRUCTION WORK ON SUNDAY'S AND HOLIDAY'S.
At the Special Council Meeting held on October 31, 2005, the Council voted to waive
Section 14-1(a) of the Code of Ordinances of the Village of Tequesta, Florida,
prohibiting construction work on Sunday's and Holiday's, to assist homeowners with
their repairs resulting from Hurricane Wilma damage.
The immediate wavier was set to expire at the next Council Meeting of November 17,
2005. At that time consideration for an extension of time would be given.
Staff recommends an extension of time until November 30, 2005.
